* Description : CPAN::SQLite - maintain and search a minimal CPAN database
This package is used for setting up, maintaining, and searching a CPAN
database consisting of the information stored in the three main CPAN indices:
$CPAN/modules/03modlist.data.gz, $CPAN/modules/02packages.details.txt.gz, and
$CPAN/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz.
It is also part of CPAN's FirstTime wizard, and thus used as part of CPAN
itself:
CPAN Variable: use_sqlite
Description: CPAN::SQLite is a layer between the index files that are
downloaded from the CPAN and CPAN.pm that speeds up metadata queries and
reduces memory consumption of CPAN.pm considerably.
Therefore it would be great if it could be made available in Debian as well!
Thanks,
Matthew.
